'Punk rock should mean freedom, playing whatever you want, As sloppy as you want as long as it's good and it has passion.'- Kurt Cobain

'Provocateur – that’s exactly (the artist as a provocateur). To provoke means to evoke something. By making a sculpture with fat or a piece of clay I evoke something. I ignite a thought within me – a totally original, totally new thought that has never yet existed in history, even if I deal with a historical fact or with Leonardo or Rembrandt. I myself determine history – it is not history that determines me... every man is a potential provocateur.'-Joseph Beuys

'You were not there for the beginning. You will not be there for the end. Your knowledge of what is going on can only be superficial and relative'- William S. Burroughs
